McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971) Trailer

[chachidog10]

was the snow effect fake?? or was it done that way for a simple effect???someone please answer this

[bohren]

@chachidog10 No, the snow was real.

[oldchicken2]

@bohren the snow was real, but it most of what you see in the final scene was an optical effect. that used footage of real snow and mixed it up with the original footage. that's why it looks it little odd.

[simpkinse1]

Tarantino was so busy listening to his own ego in the opening scenes of the film that he failed to notice how seamlessly the music of Leonard Cohen fit the template and the palette for the unfolding development. This movie will eventually be hailed, universally, as the masterpiece it is.

[Peterpollock]

Altman flash exposed the film stock which gave it that faded, dream-like look that is the hallmark of the movie.... as if you're peering through a scrim at a faded photograph from the turn of the century. Very special.

[TheMistermuppet]

they had some great looking locations for this movie. 

[bluesteelzephyr]

It's as if the affecting Cohen tunes were turned into a film, they fit so well. Altman liked a sense of place, eh? The story seems as authentic as the template of Presbyterian Church with it's cedar trees and woodsmoke and the wind bringing winter to autumn. Miners trudging a muddy street to and from their brief comforts of drink and whores, under that unforgiving sky. A vision of the past through an old window glass. It's near the top of the very best films.

Altamn's best film and one of the best movies ever!

Good job!!!!

[kkkaldav]

One of the all time greats

[spagandtuna]

Oh, yes, this is a really good one. Don't get caught up in the "romance" elements between WB & JC. You'll risk losing the essences of this film. I have to admit someone else pointed out to me that things aren't always what they seem here, watched it again and only then saw its greatness!! And visually it's stunning plus LC's music works beautifully. Don't miss this.

@spagandtuna When you say "someone else pointed out to me that things aren't always what they seem here", what did you mean please? I would like to know as I have just recently watched this and am curious! Thank you.

[spagandtuna]

@raybradburywriter Forgive me if my recollection of the real essence of my point is a bit cloudy, I've seen so many flicks since then but what I'm thinking is that the key to the greatness of this flick has nothing to do with romance elements between B & C, which is where one's natural inclination is to look, but rather in the character of Beatty which, as you know reveals itself at the end. So the little biographical blurbs you get along with his behaviors actually conceal what he's about!!

[raybradburywriter]

@spagandtuna Thanks for letting me know! Good point.

[pedonbio]

@spagandtuna It's about the rain.

[spagandtuna]

@pedonbio Please be more specific, don't know what you're driving at.

[pedonbio]

@spagandtuna Just the rain as atmospheric device. It defines the movie until the snow starts, and Cohen's music has the same atmosphere.

Best Movie Ever,,

[pduna90]

what is the title of the song?

[AaranAardvark]

The Stranger Song by Leonard Cohen

[TeletubbiesGiallo]

And the second one was "Winter Lady", ever of Leonard Cohen.

[Tigerlily21]

wow the picture quality on this upload is so good. Oh and this movie is a masterpiece. One of my favorites of all time and my favorite Altman.
